<abstract displayLabel="Summary">In 2010, when the Microlnsurance Centre was challenged to answer the question of whether there was a business case for microinsurance, the prevailing view was that the demand side of the equation was a given. The poor, like the rest of us, need insurance. They just hadn't been offered it.  Figures: 1. The "Upside-down Triangle"  -- 2. Selected Private HMIs India (2011) & Kenya (2012) -- 3. Select Life Microinsurance Programs in the Philippines: Premium and Claims 2008-2012</abstract>
